This is achieved through sensors installed in physical objects, machines, and equipment, which detect changes in events.

Key Points: 
  • This is achieved through sensors installed in physical objects, machines, and equipment, which detect changes in events.
  • Their high energy efficiency, compatibility with readily available materials, and low cost make them a promising candidate for powering sensors.
  • "Since gas masks are extensively used in emergencies like fire and chemical gas exposure, we focused on applying TENG to a gas mask.
  • Indeed, their invention could make TENGs reinvent gas masks in the near future!

Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology Scientists Improve the Power Output of Triboelectric Nanogenerators with Carbon Particles

GWANGJU, South Korea, Aug. 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Most of us have felt the shock from static electricity by touching a metallic object after putting on a sweater or walking across a carpet. This occurs as a result of charge build-up whenever two dissimilar materials (such as our body and the fabric) come in contact with each other. 

Key Points: 
  • In 2012, scientists from the USA and China used this phenomenon, known as "triboelectric effect," to build a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) that converts unused mechanical energy into useful electrical energy.
  • Viewed as potential sustainable energy harvesters, efforts have been made to enhance the power output of TENGs by injecting charges to the surface of triboelectric films.
  • However, charge recombination in the electrode and charge repulsion on the surface of the material prevents them from achieving high surface charge densities.
  • To make the layers, the researchers used electrospun mesoporous carbon spheres together with layers of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and nylon.
